Her novels which include The Sundial, The Bird's Nest, Hangsman, The Road Through the Wall, and We Have Always Lived in the Castle, in addition to the Haunting of Hill House, are characterized by her use of realistic settings for tales that often involve elements of horror and the occult.

The Haunting of Hill House

fullDescription

The Haunting Four seekers have come to the ugly, abandoned old mansion: Dr. Montague, an occult scholar looking for solid evidence of the psychic phenomenon called haunting; Theodara, his lovely and lighthearted assistant; Eleanor, the lonely, homeless girl well acquainted with poltergeists; and Luke, the adventurous future heir of Hill House. At first, their stay seems destined to be merely a spooky encounter with inexplicable noises and self-closing doors, but Hill House is gathering its powers and will soon choose one of them to make its own.
